If you know anything about Louisiana culture, you should know that we play just as hard as we work. We celebrate the music, our heritage, flowers and architecture. In Natchitoches Parish, we take pride in the variety of events and festivals held close to home. The Natchitoches Christmas Season brings in over 500,000 people to visit this historic community during the month of December alone! Make no mistake, we have events ALL the time in Natchitoches.

We also have festivals to celebrate our Creole, Native American and Louisiana cultures. Natchitoches hosts their very own Mardi Gras celebration.
